[Bug 2033678] [NEW] Unmodified files should not be rewritten

[Marcel Partap]

Public bug reported:

Right now, all sources list files will be rewritten regardless, even if
they have not changed. This loses their original last-modified
timestamp, obscuring sight of what files actually changed.

** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
